Hi Richard, I just had 2 quick questions about this lesson:
1)Why are Option Groups not as good as List Boxes and Combo Boxes? Don t all of them store values?
2)Would you use the Option Groups CHECKBOX option for a) a single field where multiple values can be checked and stored in the corresponding Table field or b) multiple related Yes/No fields (like the Mailing Label fields in this lesson) in one Option Group, where each result can be checked or unchecked, and each checkbox has a separate Control Source field to refer back to it's correct Table field?
Thank you very much for your help!
Reply from Alex Hedley:
It's probably just personal preference or that the control didn't work very well in a previous version so stayed well clear.
I'd keep them separate
